Hi Bill, Finally I made it work.... seems that by setting the environment vars: CPPFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, LDFLAGS, and LD_LIBRARY_PATH (I haven't made sure which actually do the work and which are redundant, so I just th ), configure will find the ncurses in local dir: /home/gaoyi/usr/local/include/ncurses. So it will ask the subsequent make process to make ccmake. However, during make, the ncurses/ncurses.h is not found when compiling Source/CurseDialog/form/form.h
After trying different things, finally I just copy ncurses/ dir under Source/CurseDialog/form/ which finally solve the problem.... the libs are correctly linked which means the ld is working correctly... ok I can use ccmake now. Thanks for your suggestions! Best, yi On Tue, Dec 8, 2009 at 5:00 PM, Gao, Yi <gaoyi...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Bill, > > Thanks for pointing that out!
